Two Years of Warm Welcomes at Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa
Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa unveiled a Maldivian-themed week of festivities commemorating its second anniversary. Called the Amingiri Birth-dheyh Party, a whimsical nod to the Dhivehi word for ‘two’ (dheyh), the program brims with island charm and natural artistry.
“Our dedicated team has prepared a series of events celebrating not only our remarkable journey, but also the beauty and local culture that inspire it,” said Gaurav Thakur, General Manager. “We look forward to sharing these moments of joy with all our guests, whether they are discovering the soul of the Maldives for the first time or seasoned travellers revisiting their favourite retreat.”
Island Rhythms
Hilton Maldives AmingirThe celebration kicks off on July 1 with the rhythmic beats of a boduberu performance. This traditional welcome resonates with the heartbeat of the Maldives, setting the tone for a week filled with cultural immersion.
As the sun sets, guests are invited to gather for the ceremonial cake cutting and a vibrant cocktail party. The evening continues with the Beach Market buffet dinner, where the air is scented with the enticing flavors of Maldivian cuisine. Guests can indulge in local delicacies while enjoying cultural performances that showcase the islands’ rich heritage.
The resort festivities culminate on July 7 in an exhibit that shines a spotlight on local artisans’ intricate work and homegrown brands.
Embracing Nature
Throughout the week, guests are encouraged to connect with nature. A tree planting ceremony for returning guests symbolises growth and gratitude for shared experiences. Additionally, a coral planting initiative allows guests to contribute to marine conservation efforts.
Creativity blooms with a canvas and painting competition, while chic island style comes to life at a fashion show and White Party.
Sustainable Sips and Culinary Craftsmanship
